The Ravens announced the signing of nine players to reserve-future deals on Monday including quarterback Keith Wenning.
After being drafted in the sixth-round of last May’s draft, Wenning was waived by the Ravens at the end of the preseason before being signed to the practice squad. The Ball State product is a candidate to become the No. 2 quarterback behind Joe Flacco with veteran backup Tyrod Taylor scheduled to become a free agent.
The 6-foot-3, 222-pound Wenning completed 10 of 17 passes for 140 yards in the 2014 preseason.
Baltimore also signed quarterback Bryn Renner, defensive backs Victor Hampton and Quinton Pointer, offensive tackle Marcel Jones, tight ends Allen Reisner and Konrad Reuland, fullback Kiero Small, and defensive end Zach Thompson to reserve-future deals, which allow players to take part in offseason activities and count against the 90-man offseason roster.
Small went to Cardinal Gibbons and finished the 2014 season on the Ravens’ practice squad after he played in three games for the Cleveland Browns. Pointer, Jones, Reisner, Reuland, and Thompson also spent time on the Baltimore practice squad this season.

Right Now in Baltimore
Getting the old horseshoe ready for a Baltimore visit in Indy
The Ravens are a favorite on the road to start the season in Indianapolis and there's no finer voice from the friendly heart of the Midwest than longtime columnist and Colts insider Bob Kravitz, who joins Nestor for a primer on Colts past, present and future as Baltimore at Irsay doesn't mean what it used to anymore.
Dear Jesse Minter: The ‘Super Bowl or bust’ Ravens mandate is now yours…good luck!
Steve Bisciotti didn't fire John Harbaugh after 18 years to get younger at the podium or friendlier in the hallway. Big-Schotti did it because two-time NFL MVP Lamar Jackson is in his prime and this franchise and its owner believes the Baltimore Ravens should be playing winning football in mid-February. So, welcome to Baltimore, Coach Minter. No pressure or anything…
Picking up the pieces of the sorry state of Orioles
Sure, Luke Jones talked about the lousy baseball over the weekend and the four-game sweep by the Boston Red Sox at Camden Yards. But Nestor lost his mind in this one about the lack of respect this new ownership group had regarding "honoring" the surviving members of legendary 1966 Orioles World Series on their 60th anniversary. Imagine a guy named "Aparicio" living in Baltimore losing his freaking mind over the indignity of the whole shoddy performance? When is this nightmare season over?
